Now over 100 years old NIVEA Cream is a great all purpose cream for dry hands and feet and chapped lips.

Use on those dry damaged areas, slather on your hands or feet and put a pair of gloves or socks on for super soft skin in the morning.

A classic.

This is what my mum loves to use and it is a nice smelling product and hydrating however it contains petrolium jelly/ petrolium which as the name suggests, is derived from petrol. The packaging is good I have seen it in round plastic containers to mini tins tubes and pump bottles the cream feels rich and luxurious a nice alternative and scented pleasantly but because I know about the additives I would not use often.

Very heavy

Personally I didn't enjoy this product on my face, I felt as though it was WAY too heavy and it just was wet on my face for way too long! Perfect if you have really dry skin but if you have normal type skin then it's problem not the best product

Nivea

Have very dry skin on my feet:( and hands,I try every cream on the market, so Nivea is an old time favourite, gosh it's been around for years. I love the smell, slightly powdery, so I used it lots, piled it on even wrapped my feet up in cling film, was ok but not as moistening as other creams I have tried, nice and thick though And I still have a jar by my bed just to rub on my feet last thing at night

Tips: For feet buff off any dry skin, and pile it on and wrap feet in cling film

Not for me

Personally I didn't enjoy the product as much as other Nivea products, it was very greasy, and for my already oily skin, it didn't do very well. It smelt great but wouldn't use it again.

Too strong a fragrance.

It has a great texture, feel, and works really nicely - the only problem is the strong smell. It's kind of a tacky smell and is far too fragrant for me. If you can handle that though, it is a great thick moisturiser.

The only other bad thing is the contamination that can occur considering it is a very wide open tub, so make sure your hands are always clean when using it.

Too thick for my liking

I like the packaging but using it is so thick. I have to spend a good amount of time rubbing it into my skin, once you have rubbed it in, it does leave your skin nice and smooth, i wouldnt buy this product again, i like the nivea cream in the white container more :)

Best for very dry skin

This cream is a classic, so I was quite chuffed to try it for myself. It's a really heavy formulation, and for that reason, I'd stick to using it on really dry areas such as feet, legs or arms, particularly in winter. I am partial to using it on my feet, and in this way it works wonders.

Nivea Cream

I found this product to be very thick in consistency, and after application it took some time for the greasy feeling to disappear.

I found this product smelt great like most other moisturisers by Nivea - of which I love.... But, I am really disapointed in the absorbtion rate - greasy is a deal breaker for me.

However, if the intended use for this cream was as a night cream, and it was advertised as such, I would be happy to cope with the greasiness if it meant lustrious hydrated beautiful skin in the morning.....

I think if this produst was marketed with a specific demographic with strong branding, product identity and packaging it would be a amazing success.

Good Old Fashioned Nivea Cream

I used to use this back in the day when I wanted a heavier emollient cream. Since this formula had been around for ages it was recommended to me when I first got eczema on my hands and needed a heavier cream. It's still good but takes a long time to absorb though and can leave your hands greasy. The reason I stopped using it is because I found better options for my eczema hands.

Love Nivea

I love Nivea moisturisers. This use to be my number one moisturiser until they brought out those white ones and i find them a little lighter but still really moisturising. You do have to rub this one in a bit more but it really does its job

Tips: if your moisturising straight out of the shower make sure you dry yourself totallly or this one will slide over
